FOR Shamel

We are indeed sorry that our
neighbor, the Advocatc, cannot pros
ecute its rather vigorous quest for
the appointment as postmaster with
out diverging from a regulation
course to unjustly assail the present
management of the office and the
lady and gentleman assistants. There
is no one but the exasperated candi-
date, the Advocate, to complain of
the management Of the office, but
on the other hand it is recognized as
able and efficient by the public and
has been more than once 90 KID"
by inspectors sent out by the depart
ment. The assistants are competent,
agreeable, efficient and accommodate
ing. AS to the fsw days alleged alb
sence of Postmaster Foster, coma
planned of by the aforementioned
candidate, the Advocate, it may be
we'll to note that the officer has the
written permission OF the proper Of
ficers to absent himself, duly executed
on form "No. 1922" 1t might not
be out of place to here suggest to all
to whom this item may come that
Postmaster Foster is on duty more
hours each day during the term Of
his authorized absence, than would
be the Aapocate should it be success
full in that which it is now prostitute
ing its columns to accomplish,
Should our friend accomplish that
which it considers the one thing
most to be desired, we trust that fol
the sake of the fraternity it will be
done IN such manner that when il
takes possession it can go in at the
front door.

Keep Out Of the Past.
Keep out of the past! for its highways
Are damp with malsrial gloom.
Its gardens are sere, and Its forests are drear,

Finds only a rose turned to dust,
And its storehouse of wonderful treasures
10 covered and coated with rust.
Keep out Of the past, 1t is haunted.
lie who In its avenue gropes
Shall hud there the ghost Of JOY priced tho most
And skeleton throng Of dead hopes.
In place Of its beautiful rivers
Lie pools that are stagnant with slime,
And those graves cleaning bright in the phosphoI

Cover dreams that were slain In their prime.
Keep out OF the past! 1t is lonely
And barren and black in its view.
Its fires have grown cold and its stories are old.
Turn, turn to the present the new!
Today leads you up to the hill tops
That kissed by the radiant sun,
Today shows no tomb-all Iife's hopes 10 bloom
And today holds prize to be won.

ON THE ALERT.
The Dominion Government is Ev-
identity Determined
To Make the Summer Very Warm One
for Yankee Fishermen.

ST. JOINS, N. b., April s.--The action OF
the Dominion cruiser Vigilant in giving
chase of Beaver Harbor Wednesday TO an
American fisherman in search of bait is
considered here TO be convincing proof
that the Canadian Government does not
intend TO relax any OF the provisions of
the treaty Of 1878, but 1t will enforce all
It's sections with as great stringency as
last season. II was generally believed
among Canadian fishermen that this sec
ton Of the treaty relating TO the sale Of
bait would not be enforced this year, but
since Friday last their minds have been
disabused of this idea. A Canadian fish
erman says that there has been good deal
Of bait purchased from the Bay of Fundy
fleet during the winter. The bank fisher
men go to Eastport and remain there,
while the quoddy-boats, with licenses to
touch and trade, proceed to the Canadian
feet and prepare the bait. The fishermen
who sell the bait know for what
purpose it Is 10 be used, but
as they are TO sell they ask no
questions. The fishing schooner which
the Vigilant chased, was a vessel Of about
ninety tons and hailed from Eastport. Her
name is not yet known. She had come
out of Black Harbor about the same time
that the cutter emerged from Beaver Har-
Dor. She was heading toward the feet
and was lowering her sails when the cap
tain of the fisherman observed the cruiser
bearing down upon him. The Vigilant
was then about six miles distant, but as
the wind was free from the southeast
she was rapidly nearing her quarry.
Without waiting to purchase bait
or even inquire the price of it,
the fisherman set all sail and
struck out for Eastport. The cruiser kept
up the chase past Head Harbor and well
up Quoddy river before che abandoned it.
The Nigilant, which was receiving sup
plies here, sailed for her cruising ground
last night. Captain Mclean says she is
determined TO make prisoners of Ameri-
can fishermen who violate treaty obliga-
tions, so that the fishermen have only
themselves TO blame If they should be cap
tured. 1t is reported that the General
Middleton, which was taken out of COM
mission, is again to be pressed into the
service as a fishery cruiser.

English churches are canvassing the idea
